%N A137812 Left- or right-truncatable primes.
%C A137812 Repeatedly removing a digit from either the left or right produces only 
               primes. There are 149677 terms in this sequence, ending with 8939662423123592347173339993799.

%e A137812 139 is here because (removing 9 from the right) 13 is prime and (removing 
               1 from the left) 3 is prime.
